Description

A delightful Southern treat, this Buttermilk Sweet Alabama Pecanbread is rich, moist, and bursting with the warm, nutty flavor of pecans. The perfect dessert for any occasion!


Ingredients

Scale
  1. 2 cups pecans, finely chopped
  2. 1 1/2 cups self-rising flour
  3. 1 cup granulated sugar
  4. 1 cup brown sugar
  5. 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  6. 1/2 cup buttermilk
  7. 4 large eggs, beaten
  8. 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  9. 1/4 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  • Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with butter or nonstick spray.
  • Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine granulated sugar, brown sugar, beaten eggs, vegetable oil, and buttermilk until smooth.
  • Add Dry Ingredients: Gradually mix in the self-rising flour and salt, stirring just until combined.
  • Add Vanilla and Pecans: Stir in the vanilla extract and gently fold in the chopped pecans.
  • Bake: Pour the batter into the greased baking dish, spreading it out evenly. Bake for 30–35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean or with a few crumbs.
  • Cool and Serve: Let the Pecanbread cool in the dish for about 15 minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy!

  • This Pecanbread can be stored at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the fridge for longer freshness.
  • You can substitute the pecans with walnuts for a different twist!
